Reporter Lee Jo-eun reports.
President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden fought a four-minute battle on the North Korean issue in the latest televised debate held at Belmonton University in Nashville, Tennessee, on the night of the 22nd.
President Trump has repeatedly emphasized that he has a good relationship with President Kim Jong-un rather than a war with North Korea.
[녹취:트럼프 대통령] “When I met with Barack Obama …”President Trump (just before his inauguration) insisted that former President Barack Obama told him that “the biggest problem facing the United States was North Korea, which implies a war with North Korea” and that “there must be been a nuclear war. “
However, he said, “We have a different kind of relationship with President Kim Jong-un, and it is a very good relationship” and “There is no war.”
He repeatedly emphasized that he had a good relationship with President Kim Jong-un rather than war, saying, “Maybe millions of people have died now” if he had had a war with North Korea.
President Trump also noted that at the time of his inauguration, the North Korean problem was “a mess, and the first three months were a very dangerous period.” “They (the Obama administration) left us with a mess.”

Former Vice President Biden responded to the host’s question on what conditions he could meet with President Kim Jong-un, “on the condition that he accepts that he will reduce his nuclear capacity.”
[녹취:바이든 전 부통령] “On the condition that it accepts that it would reduce its nuclear capacity …”Former Vice President Biden refuted President Trump’s claim that President Kim Jong-un did not like Obama because he did not like him.
“I tried not to meet with him because former President Obama said, ‘We will talk about denuclearization, we will not give legitimacy and we will continue to impose stronger sanctions.”
Former Vice President Biden also emphasized the need to push for China’s active role in North Korea.
[녹취: 바이든 전 부통령]”Because it would make it clear, that we are making it clear to China, that they have to be part of the deal …”The reason I think I can control the continuing threat from North Korea is that “I will make it clear to China that they too should be part of an agreement with North Korea.”
He then spoke about the US missile defense assets in the region, the US military deployment and military operations with South Korea, making it clear that “if China doesn’t stand up and help (the North Korean problem), these things will continue. “
Former Vice President Biden repeatedly referred to President Kim Jong-un as a ‘ship of violence’, saying, “North Korea has more capable missiles that can reach the American continent more easily than ever.”
